Inhalation
Ensure supply of fresh air. In case of complaints get medical treatment.
Skin contact
Wash off immediately with soap and water. Consult a physician if irritation persists.
Eye contact
Flush eyes thoroughly with a large amount of water and consult a physician.
Ingestion
Contact a doctor immediately.
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
None known
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
no

Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Take care for adequate ventilation. Use personal protective clothing. Keep away sources of ignition. Use breathing
apparatus if exposed to vapours/dust/mist/aerosol.
6.2. Environmental precautions
Prevent product from getting into drains/surface water/groundwater.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Larger quantities: Remove mechanically (by pumping). Use explosion-proof equipment! Smaller quantities and/or residues:
Contain with absorbent material (e.g. sand, diatomaceous earth, acid absorbent, universal absorbent or sawdust). Dispose
of contaminated material in accordance with regulations.

Handling and storage
7.1. Precautions for safe handling
Safe handling advice
Ensure the area is well ventilated. Contamination with bases must be absolutely
avoided.
Advice on protection against fire and explosion
Keep away from sources of ignition --- No smoking. Take precautionary measures
against static discharges. In the event of fire, cool the endangered containers with
water. When heated above the flash point and/or during spraying (atomizing),
ignitible mixtures may form in air.
7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Requirements for storage areas and containers
Keep only in the original container in a cool, well-ventilated place. Fill the container
by approximately 95% only.
Advice on common storage
Do not store together with alkalies.
7.3. Specific end use(s)
no

Exposure controls / personal protection
8.1. Control parameters
see section 8.2.
8.2. Exposure controls
Protective measures
Do not inhale vapours. Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
Hygiene measures
Store work clothing separately. Remove soiled or soaked clothing immediately.
Follow the usual good standards of occupational hygiene. Clean skin thoroughly
after work; apply skin cream.
Respiratory protection
Breathing apparatus in case of high concentrations
Hand protection
butyl rubber gloves (0.7 mm), Break through time 300 min (EN 374)
In practice, due to variable exposure conditions, this information can only be an aid
to orientation for the selection of a suitable chemical protection glove. In particular,
this information does not substitute suitability tests by the end user.
General information
Gloves should be replaced regularly, especially after extended contact with the
product. For each work-place a suitable glove type has to be selected.
Eye protection
tightly fitting goggles
Skin and body protection
On handling of larger quantities: face mask, chemical-resistant boots and apron
see section 8.2.

Stability and reactivity
10.1. Reactivity
see section 10.2.
10.2. Chemical Stability
>228 °C
No decomposition if stored and applied as directed.
10.3. Possibility of hazardous reactions
None when used as directed.
In case of intense heating, contact with acids or acidic vapours or strong oxidizing agents toxic decomposition products may
be formed.
In the presence of strong bases the product may polycondensate under intense heat evolution. Burst hazard in case of
tightly closed containers.
10.4. Conditions to avoid
The product is normally supplied in a stabilized form. If the permissible storage period and/or storage temperature is
exceeded, the product may polymerize with heat evolution.
10.5. Incompatible materials
Reactions with strong oxidizing agents.
10.6. Hazardous decomposition products
hydrogen cyanide
see section 10.2.

Disposal considerations
13.1. Waste treatment methods
Product
Waste is hazardous. It must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations after
consultation of the competent local authorities and the disposal company in a
suitable and licensed facility.
Uncleaned packaging
Contaminated packaging should be emptied optimally and after appropriate
professional cleansing may be taken for reuse. Packaging that cannot be cleaned
should be disposed of professionally. Uncontaminated packaging may be taken for
recycling.
